What colours go with green?

Combining light green tones

Delicate shades of green such as mint green, sage, jade or apple green are THE trend colours for spring, as our eyes are longing for bright, fresh colours after the long winter. Looking for styling ideas?

1. mint green 7/8 jeans with a striped shirt and a white cardigan, teamed with black V-neck ballerinas or light-coloured trainers.
2. all-over lime green: a metallic-look jacket is an eye-catcher in an otherwise simple knitted look with a green top and wide trousers.
3. apple green always puts you in a good mood, whether as a light jumper, T-shirt or jeans. Yellow and ecru go well with it.

Combining dark green tones

Khaki, petrol and olive green are the perfect compromise, especially in the transitional period: Not too in your face, but still in the direction of “Hey, there is more out there than just black and brown.”

The choice is yours: tone-on-tone with a shirt blouse and trousers to loosen up a print shirt or as a calm basis for your spring looks? A modern short coat in dark green harmonises perfectly with knitted jumpers, cardigans or trousers in light pastel colours such as yellow, pink and dove blue.

The trend colour khaki still brings along an air of army charm, because the tan colour was originally intended as camouflage for soldiers and scouts. But with attractive dark colour tones such as khaki and olive green, hiding is the last thing you will want to do!

To sum up: How to style green

Hopefully we have been able to answer the question of “What goes with green?” As a general rule, radiant green tones such as grass green and soft mint green are especially beautiful in spring and summer in combination with yellow, orange or white. Feel-good outfits such as grass green jeans paired with a white off-the-shoulder blouse or a mint green top paired with a sunshine yellow midi skirt will be sure to put a smile on anyone’s face! In the cold seasons, on the other hand, you will really stand out in dark green tones alongside red or brown. Fir green cardigans paired with brown corduroy trousers or a warm quilted coat in forest green worn over a dress in spicy tabasco will guarantee you a stylish autumn and winter outfit!

Either way: green is so versatile, which means you will have no problems toning your colour palette up and down to suit the occasion. So go ahead and start with your favourite green tone and try out some of the more courageous combinations which you haven’t been brave enough for yet!
